The Cosmos ecosystem wallet Keplr will support EVM

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the most popular wallet application in the Cosmos blockchain ecosystem, Keplr, will add support for EVM, aiming to enhance its functionality as a multi-layer wallet solution. This new integration is expected to allow users to view and manage Ethereum-based assets directly within the Keplr interface. Additionally, the feature is designed to support emerging modular projects from both ecosystems, such as Initia, Dymension, Saga, and Celestia.

EVM support is expected to enter the testing phase in a few weeks. Lee also explained the technical aspects of adding EVM support, including the use of EIP-6963 multi-injection providers to ensure Keplr can operate simultaneously without disrupting the wallet usage pattern. EVM support is intended to serve existing Keplr users rather than compete with MetaMask.
